Pancreatic δ Cells: An Overlooked Cell in Focus.
Review in Advances in anatomy, embryology, and cell biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Pancreatic δ cells act locally to repress both insulin and glucagon secretion. Because they are a rare cell type, experimentation examining δ-cell function and control has lagged that of the more abundant α and β cells. Emerging evidence, enabled partly by developing single-cell technology, demonstrates that δ-cell function is, in part, directed by δ cells but that δ cells also have intrinsic control. The contribution of these cells to overall glucose homeostasis and diabetes onset and progression is still unclear. However, they regulate both α and β cells, both of which are dysfunctional in diabetes, and their numbers are disrupted in humans with diabetes and in multiple animal models of diabetes, suggesting δ cells are a pivotal character in both health and disease.
